Fiscal Note
The proposed resolution authorizes $6.8 million in loans for four affordable housing projects, identified through a competitive RFP process, which will result in the development of approximately 310 units of affordable rental housing. The $6.8 million will be funded by $1.98 million of federal HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) revenue in the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) fund and $4.82 million from the Affordable Housing Fund capital program. The federal HOME funds are included in Community Development Division’s 2018 Adopted Operating Budget, which includes approximately $6.4 million Purchased Services budget authority in the CDBG fund. The Affordable Housing Fund capital program currently has $11.16 million in available budget authority. No additional City appropriation is required.

Body
The 2019 Executive Capital Budget authorizes $4.5 million of new spending for the Affordable Housing Fund (AHF).

This resolution draws on both resources to provide up to a combined $6.8 million in direct financial support for four proposed affordable housing developments that will also leverage federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credits allocated by the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA).
